Russell Kinney, 38, was delivered to the Orange County Jail Monday. He had been in the Liberty Co. jail after he was arrested on an unrelated charge.
Kinney is being charged with the murder of Jenny Baxter, who was found under her bed wrapped in plastic at her home in Vidor on March 14. He admitted to killing her when he was interviewed in Liberty.
Investigators still do not know how Baxter died. They are waiting on toxicology reports.
Baxter and Kinney were reportedly dating. Neighbors told investigators they although they had seen Kinney around the home at Denbow’s Trailer Park, they had not seen Baxter since Christmas.
A welfare check call is what brought authorities to check out her residence.
